The percentage of radioactive atoms that decay during one (1) half-life ____________.

Physics
2 answers:
Rina8888 [55]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

is the same

Explanation:

Half life is define as the time it take for fifty percentage of a radioactive material to disintegrate. After the first half-life passes, half (fifty percentage) of the remaining radioactive material will disintegrate in the next half-life. Then, half of that amount in turn disintegrate in the following half-life and the halving continues.

Answer:50% of its starting atomic mass

Explanation:

The radioactive decay is the process by which an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy by radiation. The half life is the time taken for the activity of a given amount of a radioactive substance to decay to half of its starting mass.

A 1.55-kg object hangs in equilibrium at the end of a rope (taken as massless) while a wind pushes the object with a 13.3-n hori
yarga [219]
<span>To answer this problem, we use balancing of forces: x and y components to determine the tension of the rope.


First, the vertical component of tension (Tsin theta) is equal to the weight of the object. 
 T * sin θ = mg =</span> 1.55 * 9.81 <span>
 T * sin θ = 15.2055

Second, the horizontal component of tension (t cos theta) is equal to the force of the wind. 
 T * cos θ =  13.3 

Tan θ = sin  </span>θ / cos θ = 15.2055/13.3 = 1.143
we can find θ that is equal to 48.82. 

T then is equal to 20.20 N

A reservoir located in the mountain 250 m above sea level flows through a pipe to a hydroelectric plant in a town at sea level.
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

     v₂ = 70 m / s

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use Bernoulli's equation

where subscript 1 is for the top of the mountain and subscript 2 is for Tuesday's level

 

          P₁ + ½ ρ v₁² + ρ g y₁ = P₂ +1/2 ρ v₂² + ρ g y₂

indicate that the pressure in the two points is the same, y₁ = 250 m, y₂ = 0 m, the water in the upper part, because it is a reservoir, is very large for which the velocity is very small, we will approximate it to 0 (v₁ = 0), we substitute

         ρ g y₁ = ½ ρ v₂²

         v₂ = \sqrt {2g \ y_1}

let's calculate

         v₂ = √( 2 9.8 250)

         v₂ = 70 m / s

What is the equivalent resistance if you connect three 10.0 Ω resistors in series?
Sonja [21]

Req = 30.0Ω.

When two or more resistors are in series, the intensity of current that passes through each of them is the same. Therefore, if you notice, you can observe that the three previous series resistors are equivalent to a single resistance whose value is the sum of each one.

Req = R1 + R2 + R3 = 10.0Ω + 10.0Ω + 10.0Ω = 30.0Ω

A SMA wire in the un-stretched condition is then given an initial strain of εo (to preload the wire) at room temperature (RT). I
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer: tensional force

Explanation:

Tension force on a material occurs when two equal forces act on a material in an opposite direction away from the ends of the material.

Pre-tensing a wire material increases its load bearing capacity and reduces its flexure.
